Moe Maktabi

My name is Moe Maktabi, I have been living in Dubai for over 10 years now! Although my background is in corporate, I am an endurance and running coach as well. I love competing but I also enjoy coaching (beginners and Athletes) as much. The satisfaction I get while competing is similar to the one I get when I see my clients progress and achieve their goals. It is very rewarding in every aspect of it.

I have been involved in OCR races for over 8 years now. I love racing, I enjoy mid to long distance trail running (I would say 20km to 30km is generally my favourite range) – as much as I love obstacles. Putting myself in mentally challenging situations is what helps me succeed both physically and mentally.

I have had an eye on Arabian Warrior ever since you guys launched. It looks really exciting and fun, I am very curious to see the obstacles that you’ll bring in, and the type of distances you’ll have.
